Martin Brundle is on his pit walk. A quick chat with Fernando Alonso. “We start seventh but are not the seventh fastest,” says the veteran. Pierre Gasly: “The team did a very good job. The car seems to have come alive.” Kevin Magnussen, in the top 10 in the Haas: “Seems the car is liking this track. It’s great to be this competitive. Every race in F1 is a gift.”
The hill at the race start has seen the wind dropping. Martin talks to Gabby Douglas, the Olympic gold medallist. She’s a Lewis Hamilton fan and hopes to meet him later. Mondo Duplantis is also there. “I like adrenaline…just having a good time.”
